What is wrong with having red flag laws? I think we need them, but people are afraid they'll be abused.

He’ll be arrested alive and well, right? Not executed by 60 bullets. Sounds about white. I'd be willing to bet that the police being shot at by one suspect and not shot at by the other suspect, carried much more weight in the decision to shoot or not shoot, than anyone's skin color.

Well there was a reason he was wondering alone. So unbelievably preventable So terrible, that poor little boy. Oh my God, that poor baby! What did he see? This is all so awful.

If this girl is being arrested for peacefully, lawfully protesting and not something else, I'll stand right beside you in demanding justice for her. But once again it's a video only showing part of the incident. If they are arresting her for doing nothing but protesting, why are the other protesters not being arrested?

Need to clear a few things up. 1. I had been a member of the dinner thread since the OG 2peas. In that thread I would post updates about ds's medical adventures which included: post surgery photos, him in just a diaper with a picc line, and CVL broviac line, and an A-tube coming out of his belly button, him on life supportive machines in the PICU, him on oxygen in a pull cart playing in the playroom, him hooked up to EEG monitors, etc. I also posted all kinds of photos of dd during her medical adventures. So for about 16 years I spoke about and posted photos about our medical adventures. Not until October did anyone ever have an issue. It wasn't until lostinspace losthershit about a photo of a few hives I wanted to show that were just a few I had covering my body from a weird freak reaction I had to Pfizer dose 3. I actually stopped posting for awhile on that thread and would just post here and there with no info. Just food. Then decided to come back and apologize and was botched at. Funny thing is that we were always told to take our issues to PMs. Yet great leader felt the need to publicly shame me. 😕 Of allllllll people who should have an ounce of sympathy and support you think it would be her. Her who used to post all kinds if medical stuff too. 2. It's not just a dinner thread. It was a source of support for those who 1. Traveled, 2. Were going through divorce, 3. Were going through medical stuff, 4. Any other issues in life. We all read and supported each other's journey. Or so I thought. So no food wasn't the only thing talked about. Funny thing is that I reached out to 2 of the frequent group members who told me my posts had nothing to do with them not posting anymore. Odd... 3. Yvonne, who made you the 2peas thank you police? Just so you have the truth: The formula I got was from insurance. That I, GI team, insurance, state, and specialty medical team searched hi and low for. I spoke to 2 people that I called personally and was promised formula. No formula has arrived from any government source. Never got a call from Abbott. I thanked all those who wrote/called. But according to you that wasn't enough I see. So you got mad. Because hey it was the in cool 2peas thing to put down a person who wasn't here to defend themselves. Very adult like. 4. Why do adult women have the need to tear apart and gossip about a person who left? It sucks that I have to come here to defend myself. Wtf. 5. My apology was heartfelt and to be torn down...fuck that. I came to the realization that it was all fake. So there you go. Have at it. Sunnycamom: "I want to thank each pea who emailed on my son's behalf. You have no idea how thankful I am that you took the time out of your day to do that for us. You don't personally know either of us but to reach out and try to help means to world to me. I have fought for over 16 years to keep him happy and thriving and alive." Despite the accusation, Sunnycamom's post sounds to me like a heartfelt thank you that's just OVERFLOWING with gratitude. AND Sunnycamom apologized for her demeaner here as she fought for her son's life. I sure hope Sunnycamom/ pantsonfire received an apology for accusing her of something that isn't at all true.

This is a very interesting question. I read mostly non fiction. My reads are usually self help, psychology or sociology related. I am incredibly interested in how other people feel and act. And I am incredibly interested in how I behave and what I feel too. I recently took the enneagram test. My therapist had suggested it. And what I learned is that I'm a 4. The biggest drawback of being a 4 is envy. Not envy of things, possessions. But envy of the happiness of others. I bristled against this suggestion for about a week. Surely I am not jealous. And what came down to is that I am and I am not. I wish for simplicity. I wish for normalcy. There is a very primal instinct inside me that is always on a quest to improve my life, understand myself better, and learn to live more in harmony with other people. But then I have very mixed feelings because I have a strong sense of authenticity. This is me warts and all and if I want acceptance, then I have to accept that from others too. And do so without envy. When I step back and look hard, I truly don't want their life. But I have remind myself of it. So honestly most of the time, I think I do a pretty good job of seeing things from others perspectives. But I have to constantly remind myself that I don't see it all. I just wanted to let you know that this comes across very clearly in your posts. I think you are a very thoughtful and kind person.

I DID feel badly for Dorit re: the break-in, but had so many questions. There's no alarm if a door gets opened or a glass door is broken?? I could understand her excuse for not setting the inside alarm (because her kids wake up a lot and wander downstairs--maybe now she'll know that's not such a great idea!). It seemed like there was absolutely no security there. One more thing about Dorit's break-in. She kept saying that the thieves assumed no one was home. WHY?? Were they following PK's schedule? Also, to take $1,000,000 of her items, they needed to fill an entire comforter?? Seems like we're always hearing that 1 piece of jewelry is worth a few million, or 1 of her bags is worth nearly 1 million. Just seemed excessive to take that much stuff. Dorit and her PK refer to each other as "Bubba". Dorit does it with her children too. I've despised these 2 but PK's humor grew on me last season. I was hoping that Erika wouldn't come back. I'm sick of her tough-girl-mafia schtick, and seeing her spend even $1 reminds me of everything her husband did and I'm SURE she was a part of it. In one documentary she was seen saying that she's the "First Lady" of a few of her husband's companies. (Nothing was "dismissed" as far as her lawsuits. I thought that they were just being transferred to another court??) I thought that Garcelle would be gone this season. She's too boring. So, the show does drag and it's obvious that they have an outlined screenplay to touch on. Too predictable, but I still watch. As far as Teresa on NJ, ITA with momto4kiddos . Teresa irks me to no end. She isn't the hottest thing that her "mirror mirror" would find. C'mon. She's whacked. NO idea how her kids seemed to turn out okay. I still don't like or trust her "fiance". She isn't "all for family". The break-in created some questions for me too. The video of the guys walking up seems off somehow. They bypassed doors and went right to a specific door without looking into any of the other doors. They were walking up to the situation like it was an extremely familiar place to them... and with all of the screaming that supposedly was going on, none of the kids woke up and wandered out into the situation?

I didn’t know anything about her either. However, I can’t keep repeating that now that I’ve read the thread. And you can’t either. People are literally telling us about her, with links and everything. So now that you have more knowledge about her, it shouldn’t take much to stop trying to spin her words with what she could have meant if she wasn’t plainly telling us who she is. And if you can’t see that, you’re not reading carefully or you’re willfully trying to remain unaware. Do better. Julee hit the nail on the head. pixiechick if you are taking the line of common sense, then please think about the fact that this woman has said things in the past that make people even question whether this was intentional. There has been a direct line of emboldening rhetoric from the Republicans toward white supremacy. If this had come out of AOC's mouth, I can being WTF, it had to be a slip of the tongue. The fact that it came out of this woman's mouth, you are giving the benefit of the doubt to someone who has already shown where she stands in a party that is actively courting white supremacy. I feel for you, I really do. I'm pretty damn moderate about a lot of issues. I voted Republican in a lot of races up until Trump. I can see middle of the road solutions on a lot of things, including the economy, spending, healthcare, etc. But I can't even imagine voting on the basis of the best economic plan (if I believed it belonged to a Republican) in light of the human rights issues going on in this country. There is a clear right and wrong. And the fact that this woman was even questioned about her words (and that's not even to mention the crowd's reaction) should shine a huge spotlight on a very big problem the GOP has when it comes to racism. How can you even try to defend anything having to do with it? I haven't defended it for 3 days by the time of your post. How much clearer can I be? But, since you asked, and just for the sake of clarification of my first couple of posts and not to continue to defend... The truth is that we don't know for a fact what is in her heart or what she actually meant to say. Sure you can look at the facts and make an educated guess, but it still remains nothing but a guess. In the beginning of this thread, I looked at what she said and my educated guess was different than the vocal majority. Then as I heard more I realized you all knew more about her than I did (I had never heard of her before) and tried to bow out, because it seemed as though "your" educated guess was more educated than mine. Instead I was berated for days even after I went along with the consensus. We HAVE to be able to have conversations here without being smeared for having a different opinion. We have to be able to risk being wrong and have a back and forth with each other until we come to some agreement or agree to disagree, without the vocal majority deciding there is only one correct answer and it always is going to be theirs. No matter what. Even when it directly contradicts what they said and did previously. Why do you have to come up with other perspectives of what might have happened? Why do you personally feel the need to speak for these people? Some people are just racist. If she misspoke why didn’t she immediately correct herself? Instead she applauded herself. That says a lot. Trying to come up with reasons that explain away racism is racist in itself. Showing grace and giving someone the benefit by articulating another possibility that is NOT racism does not mean I condone racism and no, it is not racist to do so.

Secret service? My concern is that they are strong former loyalists!!! The Secret Service says it will respond to claims made in Hutchinson's testimony, and anonymous sources claim agent Robert Engel and White House staffer Tony Ornato will testify that Trump did not lunge for the wheel in his presidential SUV, and apologists such as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) insist others inside the vehicle should testify publicly. By all means, let’s do that," Sargent wrote. "Ornato, Engel and the driver absolutely should testify under oath on live television." *** Ornato and Engel have already testified to the House select committee behind closed doors, but they haven't come forward publicly to dispute Hutchinson's claims -- and Sargent said that gives away the game Trump allies are playing. www.rawstory.com/donald-trump-scams/Ornato and Engel have already testified to the House select committee behind closed doors, but they haven't come forward publicly to dispute Hutchinson's claims -- and Sargent said that gives away the game Trump allies are playing.

NO. You do not have that correct. At. All. And you having people on block and trusting your dishonest friends to feed you the twisted version is why there's no conversation going on outside the bubble of groupthink. I said: That is an outright lie and you know it. THAT'S why there's no conversation going on outside the bubble of groupthink. THAT kind of dishonest twisting what was said. I responded to one of your buddies bringing up Biden. I didn't say that because Biden doesn't have anything to do with this. . . . I don't see you quoting anything here that shows your accusations for the lie they are. you said to me my accusations for the lie they are.. The accusations of me defending white supremacy. Not Biden having a stutter. I only quoted you dragging Biden into the thread, because I was accused of bringing him up as an excuse for this woman's speech somehow. I don't even know how that would work (being Biden's fault). It doesn't even make sense. But sockmonkey's a pro at critical thinking and all.

Yes, she said white life. Quote Hitler in another!... For us there is no room to misspeak. They keep telling us Biden has dementia, who has a documented stutter. What's her reason other then following her great leader to the 1776 Revolutionary Airport!! There it is... I have no current quote where you and yours claim Biden has dementia, but it has been frequent... Surely not a lie by me.. No one said any of that was a lie. The lies were the twisted version of what I actually said.

I want to get the conversations straight, given that I have some people on block, so only have read what has been quoted. So, defending someone who publicly declares that Hitler was right and claims the overturning of Roe v Wade as a victory for “white” life - in other words, someone who wants me and my children gassed/murdered for being impure - is okay and should make me want to have conversations and dialogue with women who defend taking that stance? All the while, telling someone to go to hell/jump in a lake of fire is abhorrent and indicative of women tearing down the framework of our country (or whatever tearing down the framework means - it seemed like a lot of babble with a number of missing words that would be critical to having the sentences make sense)? Do I have this correct? Pro-Hitler politician who wants to kill me and mine is defensible, while liberals who are fed up are the cause of broken dialogue in this country? What a bizarre world we live in. I still cannot believe people - on this board even - say some things out loud and still sleep at night. I want to get the conversations straight, given that I have some people on block, so only have read what has been quoted. NO. You do not have that correct. At. All. And you having people on block and trusting your dishonest friends to feed you the twisted version is why there's no conversation going on outside the bubble of groupthink. I said: And the immediate argument was "but BIDEN SAID," That is an outright lie and you know it. THAT'S why there's no conversation going on outside the bubble of groupthink. THAT kind of dishonest twisting what was said. I responded to one of your buddies bringing up Biden. I didn't say that because Biden doesn't have anything to do with this.

Congratulations! I think it's some combination of the three. We all chatted about our Grandma, Grandpa names - the whole family. It was so fun to bat around the names. Then we used those names with the grandbabies. They couldn't always pronounce them right away, but eventually began to use them and they stuck.

I agree that no one should ever put their hands on another person and you can see by the way the person next to him rubs his back that it could have been harder than it looks, but he barely moved That's the first thing I noticed, the person rubbing his back, like it got smacked really good. And I did expect him to move more, but it didn't look like he moved much at all. He could have put his foot forward, and maybe it felt worse to him than it looked. The video doesn't really help his claim very much.

because if you read pixiechick's posts, she demands precision from others and loves to point out tiny inaccuracies in other people's posts.. I tried to think of what "tiny" inaccuracies I point out and the only thing I can come up with is that I ask that you don't change my actual words into other words in order to continue arguing, and don't move the goal posts because you can't credibly dismiss a fact that you don't like. Both things you do and hardly tiny. Pretty significant in order to have a real discussion. If there's something else I do besides that, please point it out with links, so that I can look at the issue and correct it. Otherwise, don't make vague accusations that you can't back up, because it doesn't do anything to further conversation and it really doesn't make your argument on the topic correct.

Fwiw, I don’t agree with telling you to chew on jeans (what does that even mean) or jump in a ring of fire. That is not ok. I missed the ring of fire comment the first time around but just went back to find it. Thank you, I appreciate you saying something. To be precise, she told you to jump in a lake of fire, she didn't tell you to kill yourself. Just what do you think will happen if someone jumps into fire? I'm not going to comment on her comment, my perspective is kind of irrelevant. That's VERY different from when you said you agreed with And when you said "As Dr Martin Luther King said “In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.” I am not surprised that people have strong reactions to your defense of a white supremacist. I gave another perspective of what might have happened that WASN'T racist. Don't try to say I was defending a racist statement, because you know damn well I was NOT doing that and that I did not deserve to be told to go kill myself.

I just asked a question. How to you expect people to react when you defend and continue to defend a white supremacist? Sure, your perspective is possible, but more than likely, at best, it is was a Freudian slip. She has made white supremacist remarks in the past, quoted Hitler and is courting the far right MAGA voters. Her comments and the subsequent cheering by the crowd of Trump supporters are offensive, especially in light of how women of color will be disproportionately affected by the reversal. I don't expect anyone to be told to kill themselves here. You expect and are okay with it. Got it. And yet you say my perspective on what she meant is possible.

You have more knowledge of her than I do, so I have nothing more to add. Just maybe to clarify that maybe intelligence isn't the right word to describe, but i used it in the sense that she has a well enough functioning brain to know she wouldn't get away with saying such an outright racist thing. So it seems to me that she wouldn't have purposefully chose that statement when writing her speech. Going by that logic it made more sense to me that it was a horrible slip of the tongue. LIke I said though, I don't know anything about her, so I will leave it to you all that do and bow out. Especially after being told to go kill myself in a lake of fire. You defended and continue to defend a white supremacist, even after her racist, anti-Semitic history and explanations for her comments were posted. I'm not sure what you expected? I gave another perspective of what might have happened, I answered questions asked of me and then bowed out because i didn't know anything more about her. Are you saying for that I deserved to be told to kill myself in a lake of fire? Because that's what it looks like, you're saying. Please clarify.

Except, this is what I was responding to: A tweet saying that Hillary "doesn't accept the 2016 results as legitimate." claiming that's a lie that needs to be corrected because she made a concession speech and a phone call. Her very own words since the speech and phone call say it's NOT a lie. As do several mainstream media sources. No, what I posted is the full context of Christie's comments. He was making a false comparison. I got it. But it still wasn't a lie. Which is all I have said.

What Christie said is still not lie. No matter how much worse Trump is than anyone, that won't change facts.

Possibly they understood that she meant to say "right to life" and just let the stumble go? I have never heard of her until this, but I have a hard time believing that even if she is a white supremacist, why would she bother to say that out loud in a speech if she's just going to back track on it when someone calls it out? And she seems intelligent enough to have put some thought into it while supposedly writing those words in her speech, to know someone would, especially in this political climate. I understand I could be wrong about her, but the thought process attributed to her meaning to say that just doesn't make sense to me. Thanks to some extreme gerrymandering, I now live in the Illinois 15th district that Mary Miller and Rodney Davis are competing to represent. I can assure you that Ms. Miller is far from "intelligent," and you *are* very wrong about this. I have zero doubt that she meant every word she said. She has a known history of inflammatory speech. It sickens me that she has been my representative for these past two years. She has been a puppet for all of the most disgusting far-right conspiracy theory lunatics since she won her seat in 2020. Her husband is a Republican Illinois Representative who displays a Three Percenter logo on his pickup truck. The couple appeared rather out of nowhere to win their elections during Trump's presidency. But they sure do seem to have a lot of money supporting them! Her behavior, rhetoric, and attitude are fully equivalent to MTG and Lauren Boebert. But now, it appears that many Republicans are even disavowing her. The word on the street around here is that the latest gerrymandering is a purposeful attempt to get rid of Mrs. Miller by pitting her against a long time popular politician in Rodney Davis. I used to have some respect for Rodney Davis as he seemed committed to serving the agricultural communities in his district. But he has changed his tune of late and has also hopped on the "the election was stolen" bandwagon and backing Trumpkins. Having met the man, I *know* he is intelligent. Sadly, he will not be punished for his alliance with the crazy people as he is the least of the two evils competing for a now even more solidly red district. You have more knowledge of her than I do, so I have nothing more to add. Just maybe to clarify that maybe intelligence isn't the right word to describe, but i used it in the sense that she has a well enough functioning brain to know she wouldn't get away with saying such an outright racist thing.

Muir was absolutely right, Chris Christie was trying to make false comparisons between the 2000, 2016 and 2020 elections. Apples and oranges, not a both sides argument. news.yahoo.com/abc-news-anchor-shuts-down-211630207.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAIE_M-FuHvQOlyi5aQ4h1ORprm61xBrN4HI9OAOApa035hxG6WAsYSG5PuJlUc2g-luMOXwKlMsFm6NtNI8wI8ub-fsKY8S7n0SHZlUecThlNVi4yn7_5XNNnhhnI_r2TzpsnZr365iCPld6QVO-3JP8BKvmT14ui7J7SeWyLSeRIn Christie’s view, though, this was actually a bipartisan problem and “goes all the way back to 2000” and the dispute over the Florida presidential election recount, which eventually went to the United States Supreme Court. (By a 5-4 majority, the court granted George W. Bush’s request to stay the Florida Supreme Court’s decision and halt the recount.)
“You had supporters of Al Gore, who even after Vice President Gore conceded the election and certified it himself as the president of the Senate, refused to accept George W. Bush as legitimate,” Christie declared. “You’ve heard Hillary Clinton say she still doesn’t accept the 2016 results as legitimate. This is a dangerous thing in this country brought to a new level in 2020.”
Cutting the former New Jersey governor off, Muir shot back: “I have to interrupt right there because you also know, Governor, that Al Gore stood before the nation and actually conceded and did something very different than what we witnessed. This is much different.”
Christie contended that he wasn’t talking about Gore himself but merely his supporters, asserting that many of them “did not believe George W. Bush was legitimate.” Additionally, he noted that there were Democrats who voted against Bush’s electoral certification in the House of Representatives.
“What I’m saying is this is a disturbing trend and pattern that’s been increasing in intensity from 2000 to 2016, now to 2020,” he continued.
Muir, however, wrapped up his conversation with Christie by suggesting the former GOP presidential candidate had offered up a false equivalence.
“I get what you’re saying,” the anchor concluded. “I just don't want our audience to think I'm not aware that there isn’t a real equivalency here when you have a former president who is sowing seeds of doubt in this particular election.”Except, this is what I was responding to: A tweet saying that Hillary "doesn't accept the 2016 results as legitimate." claiming that's a lie that needs to be corrected because she made a concession speech and a phone call. Her very own words since the speech and phone call say it's NOT a lie. As do several mainstream media sources.

I'm not defending her, I'm advocating for just a little bit of critical thinking. I also wasn't the one to bring up the whataboutism, just responding to it. How do you explain the crowd cheering to that? Possibly they understood that she meant to say "right to life" and just let the stumble go? I have never heard of her until this, but I have a hard time believing that even if she is a white supremacist, why would she bother to say that out loud in a speech if she's just going to back track on it when someone calls it out? And she seems intelligent enough to have put some thought into it while supposedly writing those words in her speech, to know someone would, especially in this political climate. I understand I could be wrong about her, but the thought process attributed to her meaning to say that just doesn't make sense to me.

Yes, she said that. Apparently it was a slip over "right to life". "A historic victory for white life." Doesn't even make sense. It isnt. It doesnt even have anything to do with race, so she would not have said it. "A historic victory for right to life." does make sense. As far as Biden's stutter... A stutter doesn't make you forget that you're running for president and not for senate. Twice. A stutter doesn't make you ramble on and reminisce about letting kids playing with your leg hair decades ago. A stutter doesn't make you read the stage directions from the teleprompter. A stutter doesn't make you keep admitting that "they" won't let you take questions, to say that "they" are going to be mad at him. A stutter doesn't make you forget words, concepts, people's names and that this is the Biden presidency, not the Harris presidency. A stutter doesn't make you say "We're in the process of deciding what I think." in response to a reporter's question. There's a reason why even most democrats don't want him to run again. So, I know that logical fallacies (whataboutism, in this case) are your thing, but you're doing nothing here but defending a white supremacist MAGA maniac. This is not new news. Ol' girl hangs with MTG and this is not her first so-called gaffe when it comes to white supremacist rhetoric. So, I know you think you're doing something here, but you really are just demonstrating that you align with facists. Congrats, I guess? Now go chew on jeans. I'm not defending her, I'm advocating for just a little bit of critical thinking. I also wasn't the one to bring up the whataboutism, just responding to it.
